Sailors---"widespread mistrust" in Admirals that command them...poor leadership and a disciplinary environment that tolerates absolutely no mistakes in a survey of the fleet.
Most troubling is the perception sailors have of senior leadership which was found to be " a widespread distrust of senior leadership". Survey was released amid complaints of some about excessive political correctness as the Navy seeks to stomp out sexual harassment and misconduct.
Sailors further voiced complaints about deployments that have been stretched up to nine months. Also, with the cutbacks the talk is that deployments may be extended up to one year.
When asked whether they agree that the Navy operates a risk-averse culture....90% of Officers answered--"Yes"...
Wonder if these numbers and complaints are similar in other branches of the service?.... Social experimentation and extreme political correctness are beginning to have a negative effect....
